The museum is dedicated to Pietro Micca and a tragic chapter of Turin history, the siege by French troops in 1706 which lasted four long months.
In addition to seeing plastic models, paintings, prints and relics shown in two rooms, it is also possible to walk through the complex system of mine countermeasure underground tunnels which used to protect Turin, together with the defensive walls.
